There are several other Penicillin riffs floating around with the same name, including those with bases of oloroso sherry, agave (tequila/mezcal split), and American whiskey (bourbon and rye).

Not bad, but lacks depth--needs either a significantly peatier scotch as the base or a significantly beefier ginger syrup.

Crazy good drink. Honestly reminds me of a bourbon cocktail in the paper plane neighborhood. I think this comes out better with aperol, but it’s great either way.

I put it in a rocks glass over fresh ice based on what I saw though it's not too boozy and could probably go into a cocktail glass.

  • Agree that Peychaud's improves this... I'd actually bump it to a 4.5 with peychauds

I thought this was improved with the addition of some Peychaud's bitters.

Yankee Palms

1 oz Applejack, Lairds
1 oz Amaro, St. Agrestis
1 oz Swedish Punsch
3⁄4 oz Dark rum
3⁄4 oz Light rum
1 oz Orange juice
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
1⁄2 oz Lemon juice
1⁄2 oz Simple syrup (Shagbark hickory)
4 ds Bitters, Angostura
Instructions

Shake all with ice, pour (no strain) into a tall glass, garnish with a maraschino cherry – yeah, go for the American classic bright red ones – and lime twist.

Notes

Shagbark hickory syrup is pretty darn easy to make and here's a recipe. https://www.thespruceeats.com/shagbark-hickory-syrup-made-from-bark-402…

It has smoky almond/cherry/woody vibes so maybe you could swap it for maple/orgeat/cherry liqueur mix with perhaps a few drops of heavily peated scotch for the smoky notes.
